So how did you order them. Did you walk into the store and ask to order some primers? Or did you order them online for delivery to the nearest store?

Our local reloading store has been on a 1K of each type per day limit for quite a while now so it's real not been a big deal shortage wise

Impressive.
That's a good price BEFORE the goofiness!
(Yeah, I've gotten them cheaper on sale, but not for a couple of years.)

Exactly, and since you cant return primers they would have to let you keep them.

Tell them to take it out of the clerk's pay that fucked up the transaction.

So in reality they were 21.98 per 500 / $43.96 per 1000?

A local shop is selling SPP's for 79.99 per thousand.  He got 75k in on tues, had less than 10k left yesterday.

That's quite a margin, but people are willingly paying it. I have been finding more and more supplies. Hopefully, we will start to see powder showing up soon.

EARLY in the morning on TRUCK day at Sportsman's Warehouse you can still pick-up primers for 32 bucks/k.  I didn't think it was a big deal any more, unless you  were looking for bench rest primers.  Or maybe 50bmg.
